James Webb telescope captures direct images of Saturn-sized exoplanet
Astronomers using #JWST have captured compelling evidence of a #planet with a mass similar to Saturn orbiting the young nearby #star TWA 7.
If confirmed, this would represent Webb’s first direct image discovery of a planet and the lightest planet ever seen with this technique outside the solar system.

TWA 7 b is 110m light years away and by far the smallest-mass planet to be observed by direct imagery
JWST discovers how we’re able to see the Universe at all
It's only because all of the neutral atoms in intergalactic space became ionized that we can see so far away through space.
JWST, at last, has found who the culprit is.

Webb Just Captured the First Direct Image of Carbon Dioxide on an Exoplanet
「 The achievement was made possible by Webb’s coronagraphs, which block light from bright stars as happens in a solar eclipse to reveal otherwise hidden worlds. This allowed the team to look for infrared light in wavelengths that reveal specific gases and other atmospheric details 」
JWST captures its most extreme gravitational lens ever
Hubble previously viewed galaxy cluster Abell S1063, finding swirling, distorted lensed galaxies.
With a JWST deep field of that same region, you won't believe what we saw.

JWST NIRCam image of Arp 107, also known as UGC 5984.
In this near-infrared view, older stars appear white. They reveal a wealth of information about how these two galaxies collided hundreds of millions of years ago. The tenuous bridge of gas and stars as well as the diaphanous area to the bottom left are signs of past interactions.

Endich mal was Aktuelles zum #JWST von Leuz, denen ich halbwegs vertraue. Die ArteDE-Dokus zu Entwicklung & Bau sowie Launch & Arbeitsbeginn sind nun schon ne Weile her.
Jupp, obwohl ich gern und ausführlich über den verdrängten Irrationalismus der Aufklärung (Enlightenment) lästere, gehört sowas wie Gersham Collage für mich ›zu den Guten‹. Vorträge von Profs und so sind eh oft besser als doofe Drama-Mukke-Reklame-Sprecher-Dokus.
